    preview updates are more beta updates. a trial from MS to check out if it has issues. i disabled these because it broke my windows last year.

    Proceed with Caution. Or don't proceed at all. User's Choice.

    I installed it and had no problems.

    Perhaps wait until it is released not as a preview anymore, that way you may feel more sure about it.

    If you don't mind being a guinea pig go ahead. As others have said, it will be released later as a non-trial version, so I just usually wait for that.
